Cowboy lost his chirp

I've got the day off tomorrow.

Wish I was an expert in that vs mostly lucky

Sometimes when you are a bank tangler, your spot is anywhere someone isn't. 

But even in low water I am trying to find structure or transition - it sure gets harder when everything left, in low water,  looks like a silt bottom. 

My deeper chirp, helps a lot if I can't spot what I am looking for from a shores eye view.. Sometimes its simply a rise or hump in the silt floor or a lone rock or a switch from mud to gravel floor.. A topo map is also helpful and Google earth looking back over the years is a useful tool. 

If I was going to Rockport in the morning I would likely drive right back to the trail head on this video but hike more towards the dam vs where we were, as that spot gets a fair bit of traffic from the campground. A bit north of the spot we were fishing there is a shallow point coming off that last cove that has some transition to deeper water on the lake side. Ought to be a few hanging there. 

Good luck
